Pet

Darling, honey, sweetie
Look this way; turn your head
If you don't, I'll be dead

A single glance is all I need
I will not ask for more
To beg, to kiss, to hug, and please
Is all that I'm made for

But, oh, my dear you see me not
My heart is breaking still
And though I had a spirit strong
You've driven out my will

Colder than ice; blacker than coal
I will not be your whore
Scoff and kick, I won't ever mind
I'm past your bloody gore

And still, my dear, you see me not
I'm falling through this hole
The dark is coming closer still
It's eaten out my soul

Darling, honey, sweetie
Look this way; turn your head
If you don't, I'll be dead
